What are the requirements for proving 800,000 THB for a retirement visa at the 90-day mark in Thailand?
So I have just renewed my retirement visa and am wondering what happens at the 90 day mark regarding proof of the 800,000 having remained in your account...I am especially curious as to whether proving this is negated should you happen to leave the country prior to your 90 reporting? Can anyone shed some light in this?
Answer summary
The discussion outlines the requirements for retirees in Thailand regarding the annual retirement visa extension and subsequent 90-day bank statement reporting. It indicates that certain immigration offices, like the one in Jomtien, issue a document requiring proof that the 800,000 THB remains in the bank account after 90 days, while others do not. It emphasizes that this requirement may not be applicable if one travels abroad prior to the reporting date, as long as no such document was issued at the time of visa renewal.

It would seem that if you did not get a paper like this from the immigration office when you got your yearly extension you don't need to go back in 3 months and show your bank book.

WOW :O that's differentusually IF you use the banked money method AND you pushed paper all on your own <- (meaning you didn't use an agent to push paper there for you) they give that paper to everyone to come back in 3 months.
Sure can't hurt to check with them about it.
Last thing you need to do is run off the rails.

, okay, first off we need to know what office you got your yearly extension at..AFAIK, at this time ONLY the immigration office in Jomtien is handing out a paper that has a date 3 months after your extension application which says to update your bank book and take it in to show them on that date so they can make sure the 800K is still in the account.
If you didn't get a paper like that I would say your immigration office doesn't require it (Bangkok, Chiang Mai, etc don't).
And no, your 90 day reporting has nothing at all to do with this requirement at the immigration offices that have you come back.
If you're going to be out of the country on that 3 month date you're supposed to report back on you go as soon as you get back.

Not sure what you mean. Some Immigration Offices ask you to come back in 90 days to show that your account still have the 800.000 Thb. I guess your question is, if I go abroad and do not report that, what will happen?

I suggest you ask Jomtien.Robert *******
In early March Jomtien handed out a copy of the Police order, with a date of 90 days later, signed by as well as the Immigration Officer and the applicant to come back in 90 days and show the bank book. If nothing is said, signed or mentioned, your are free to go and come back, but use a re-entry permit to keep your stay alive.

appointment??? There was no mention of an appointment let alone any discussion about the proving anything to do with funds...for the record, renewed at JomtienRobert *******
If you made the appointment to come back in 90 days to show your bank book, you have to show up at that date.

yes, if you’re not there to do your 90 day reporting, will you be expected to report 90 days from your next arrival back in thailand? Which would mean that you then only have. To have the 400,000 in the account.Activity
